**NEW PROGRAM**

The B.Sc. Honours Physics: Biological Physics program keeps a strong core of foundational physics and specializes through courses in biology, mathematics, physiology, computer science, and chemistry. The Honours program offers a more rigorous preparation, with additional research experience, for students with a strong interest in biophysics. In the final year, students will have an opportunity to carry out a research project within a biophysics lab in the department. This program provides a very strong foundation for students wishing to pursue graduate studies in biophysics, as well as for research careers in industrial, hospital, or academic laboratory settings.
